In our ecosystem unit we learned  what will happen if you pollute a ecocolumn things such as Fish, Snails, crickets and slugs will die. The cause of things dying is that when you pollute it the pollution has acidity in it which can kill plants and animals. My partner in this was Kaden and Lulu together we were doing this experiment. I think it went pretty well the only thing that could be better is that i would like a boy in my group.

I learned that ecosystems are forests and lakes. An ecocolumn is a bottled ecosystem. We learned how to measure acidity using pH scales you dip in the pH strip for 5 seconds and pull it out and line it up against a chart and record it down in our ecocolumn folder. One thing we did not know is that 7 and a half is the best pH level and to high and to low is bad and can kill fish. We thought that the higher the more acidic it is and the lower it is the better but is really the other way around.

An ecosystem is a place where there is life. For example, forests and lakes. Having a ecocolumn helped me understand ecosystems because it was like we were having our own ecosystems. Our grass is dying so the pollution must be the main effect.

Have you ever measured acidity before using a pH scale. If yes out of 5 stars how many stars would you give it?
